What a Buffalo technician checks first
- Lake-effect freeze cracking and blocking exposed sections.
- Very old cast-iron and clay laterals with root and scale problems.
- Basement sump overload during thaw and heavy rain.
First the technician locates the cleanout and the lowest affected fixture, then runs CCTV to map the problem section. Only then is the nozzle and pressure matched to what the camera found, and the result is shown on camera afterwards.
Common Buffalo plumbing problems
Most Buffalo calls fall into three patterns: lake-effect freeze cracking and blocking exposed sections, very old cast-iron and clay laterals with root and scale problems, and basement sump overload during thaw and heavy rain. Each points to a different section of pipe, so the fix is chosen from camera evidence for that section, not from a generic clog treatment.
Questions Buffalo customers ask
Why do drains keep backing up in Buffalo?
Because lake-effect freeze cracking and blocking exposed sections and very old cast-iron and clay laterals with root and scale problems tend to return after a cable-only clear. Jetting cleans the pipe wall itself, and the post-cleaning camera shows whether the diameter is restored.
Is hydro-jetting safe for older Buffalo pipes?
It is safe when the pipe is inspected first and pressure and nozzle are matched to the material the camera found. That inspection step is why CCTV comes before jetting on every mainline job.
